Beer Gear – Umbrellas Gone Wild

Hey, we get that we’re not Consumer Reports but we do cover the craft beer scene 24/7 and as a result, beer-themed merchandise occasionally comes our way… in this case it’s umbrellas with a sudsy twist.

RainTaps is a small shop with a simple philosophy: Why leave the house with a boring wooden or plastic umbrella handle when you can stroll down the street with a beer tap in hand?

There are a ton of beautiful tap handles out there and every year breweries are coming up with more outrageous designs to catch your attention at the bar. It’s no wonder that there’s an increasing number of people that are collecting them.

Most tap fanatics buy special mounts in order to display them at home, but not you, my friend. You’re going to turn heads on rainy days with a customizable umbrella that tells everyone, “Hey. I like beer.”

Choose from classic umbrella colors like black, blue, and maroon — or for the bold, rainbow.

You can find the right beer tap umbrella to match your particular style out on the street, or just make your umbrella stand the coolest on the block with a very hard to find collector’s tap.
